"I have no opinion" reeks of, "I still think you should pay for all of it but I've been informed by the lady folk that I will keep that opinion to myself."

Well, next time he requests some type of help that requires the use of their vehicle, you know your answer.

"I don't have an opinion on that"

"I have no opinion" in the context of the story, followed by a text expressing his opinion = "I'm not assertive enough to ask you to your face for $890."

But if his opinion was other than 50%, the text would have said so. Everyone's brave in text messages.

Family + money = complicated.

Sounds like the relationship with the little ones is worth it tho.

Blame Ford, they produced the car that hid one of the most commonly failed components inside the engine where it becomes a major repair. Call ralph Nader. Demand a recall. Insist on a lemon law buy back.

Or just move on.
